JUST A WORD Mr. Editor: If you will grant me a little space in our paper (which comes to me as a friend from home) I wi(l speak a word to our fellow workers in the Lord. 1 have often thought of the responsibility of one who professes to be a follower of the Savior of the world, in giving to those to whom he or she comes in contact, that nourishment that will lift the soul and and mind from the mire and filth of sin and shame to the real Christ Child who, when but twelve years of ?KV> cuuia asK ana answer questions with the teachers and wise men of that noted city of^ Jerusalem. I wonder if they really mean, like the apostle Paul, to forget the past life, whether few or many days, and press forward to the goal, that high-way that leads men and women alike, both rich and poor, small and great, to wrestle with the problems of good and evil, and to leave the evil and cling to that which is good by the grace of God. Are we as servants of Christ willing to pay the price for those things that are in their very nature heavenly; those ideals that Christ spoke of when he said: "If any man lack wisdom, love or faith, let him ask of God who gives freely to all men," and are we willing to become fools in the eyes of the world for Christ's sake? And are we willing tn fin no .loono eoU fie ?? ? ? ? .iuiu, 11 any mull will come after me let him take up his cross daily, deny himself and follow me"? Is it not true that the fact that there is a cross for all and that all must deny themselves, keeps many sinners from accepting Jesus as King of Kings, and many Christians from enjoying that blessedness ->f the consciousness that Jesus is theirs? But if we would be filled with the spirit of Christ, "For if any man have not the spirt of Christ he is none of his," we must be willing to do those things that will give us those things that seem to us as being too small to be taken in consideration by those around us; but let us remember that all of those around us are not believers, and that like the old serpent who watched his chance to tempt Eve, so does the tempter (and some times in the persorf of a real human being) stand with eager eyes and a yearning heart to take the small things, both that which is done > and that which is left undone, and \ parade them before the people of the world as the fruit of God's children. Is it not true riends, that often times a professing cfiristlan falls a prey to the agents of the Devil who goeth aoout like a roaring lion seeking whom they may devour? Because of the fact, that as Christians \*e are not willing to be honest enough with God and our neighbor to say that these little things are wrong, and we have not religion enough to give them up for the sake of our Savior and the salvation of the souls of our neighbors or those we meet and know. If God means anything to me as a Christian, doesn't he mean everything? Then, if this be true, Christian friends, we have fallen far short of our profession, for we are too willing to find or too try to find some reason why we should do the things we want to do and leave undone the things that cost us something, rather than pay the price and be a soulwinner for God's kingdom and His giory. r or 11 we ever expect to accomplish anything for Christ and our fellowmen now is the time; never was the time so ripe for men and women who are willing to pay the price and give men the gospel of Jesus now. Now is the time for Christians to lay aside all selfishness and all worldliness and march as an unbroken line of Christian soldiers against sin and crime and evil in all of, its phases, j May God give us the victory in His 'name.

The first thing we will mention, to he surprise of all, is that the round is too wet to plough, though i re farmers have considerably more ' rork done at this time this year than . re had done the same time last year. | Mr. W. B. Whitlock told the> i rriter yesterday that he sowed oats ^ hat day one year ago for the first lowing of the season, and he also } lentioned what a fine crop of oats I e harvested off of the 12 acres he ot sowed that day, only using as i ertilizer 700 pounds of nitrate of oda on the 12 acres. The oat crop \ lis year bids fair to be good every'here. Mr. Coleman Fowler, I be- ^ eve, has the fairest prospect for an at crop this year of any of us in this ( immunity. Coleman, though, is hard ^ > beat at most anything in the irming line. Today is a beautiful ay. We have had very little , indy weather so far, for March. We are informed that our friend | nd neighbor, Mr. Claude Whitlock, i going to sell books, such as fam- i y Bibles, beginners easy Bible les- ' ins for the little folks, and a lot J f other good books. We hope everyody will give him an order as he a as certainly had a hard time for the ist few years and this work wUl gree with him.
